Q: 13
A Cisco Meraki MX security appliance is trying to route a packet to the destination IP address of
172.18.24.12. Which routes contained in its routing table does it select?

I don’t think it’s D. C matches with a /24, so it’s more specific than /20 and wins here.
C
Isn't route selection based on longest prefix not just priority, so /24 beats /20 right? Just making sure I'm not missing anything.
C vs D. Had something similar in a practice test and went with D because it's directly connected, but pretty sure non-Meraki VPN with /24 is more specific here. I might be off, but that's what I picked.
Longest prefix wins, so it's C. Even though non-Meraki VPN is lower priority, the /24 is more specific than /20. I think that's what Cisco expects for route selection in this scenario. Agree?
C not D
C tbh
Its D, longest prefix only matters if route types are equal priority, directly connected should win here.
Yeah, C here. That /24 is more specific than the others so it gets picked first.
Maybe C, since longer prefix match trumps directly connected for this scenario. D is tempting but not correct here.
